<p>I am new to this board, and as I have read these messages, i have seen severe anxiety throughout. I am here to let everyone know there is still a chance till the fat lady sings(the rejection letter). These boards are severly biased toward above average students, and most people on here are extremely intelligent. I am here to say that this waiting is very trying on everyone, and keep in mind we probably still have a month to go. So take a deep breath, let loose, and have some fun. Senior year only lasts so long.</p>
<p>AMEN, can I get an AMEN!</p>
<p>hahaha hillyrae, you can amen to that because you've gotten in. lol.</p>
<p>i say the same things but at the same time, i can't help but worry.</p>
<p>i mean, even if i sucked real bad, they would at least send me the "no scholarship" letter right? is my application so dismal in comparison that i don't even deserve the letter?</p>
<p>ugh so many questions no answers. i guess even if i don't get into sc, i should still have many other schools to choose from... hopefully.</p>
<p>Oh, it's so bad on the CC forums. These forums should be shut down, so at least we would be less stressed. It's sad how at the time you should be enjoying being a child, you're having major anxiety about the future. What have college admissions done to us?!</p>
<p>the stress just makes getting acceptances even better!</p>
<p>but ya, i think CC forums do promote alot of stress with minute details that get blown up into some huge deal...also, I think the people on here are pretty harsh just because most of them are extremely intelligent and might expect tougher evaluations of applicants than there are in reality. (am I the only one who thinks that?)</p>
<p>Yes, I agree wholeheartedly. I remember there were a lot of posts about application "mistakes" blown out of proportion. There were mistakes like not capitalizing your state. </p>
<p>CC distorts reality. When you realize how many people our age are not even going to graduate from high school or go to college, it's shocking.</p>
<p>i completely agree with you, basically this site just brings together the best of the best, and they all show off their stats, kids who applied but aren't as interested in college aren't going to show up on cc, so this site is very biased and only shows that top 25%, and the rest of us who look on anxiously lol i'm not gonna lie cc made me seriously depressed for a week, and i'm a really really happy person, it was horrible.</p>
<p>I totally feel, after I first got on CC it was like a harsh reality check, but I think perhaps it was an embellished reality</p>
<p>This site makes me depressed everytime, so therefore I've been depressed like every week. I want to focus on other things because not getting into my dream college is not the worst thing in the world compared to getting cancer or HIV, but it's so hard. It's a superficial anxiety. Then, I also worry about grades in school. But it's the last semester! Who cares about your grades during this time?! As long as you don't get below a B, it's alright. But it's nice to know, that people feel the same way. </p>
<p>Is it me or does anyone feel like regretting what they did or didn't do in the past few years? I sound crazy because rejection letters haven't even come out.</p>
<p>I really regret getting a myspace and keeping my AIM account, they were a big part in my bad procrastination habits</p>
